This Wedgwood jasperware medallion, created between 1800 and 1825, features a portrait of Carolus Linnaeus, a renowned Swedish botanist, physician, and zoologist. The blue jasperware background serves as a striking contrast to the white cameo portrait, highlighting the intricate detail of the raised relief. The medallion, currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to the enduring influence of Linnaeus's work on the field of natural history.
